Hi.

I tried to use the pkgsrc tools to build lesstif for my pmax system.

The build process stops somewhere in building clients/Motif-1.2/ stuff. 

The makefile passes the argument -R:NONE to gcc (or cc). This option is 
NOT documented in either cc or gcc manpages.

Also, when I tried to manually edit the Makefiles causing the problems by 
removing the option, it stopped on "cannot find file -lXm".

Well, then I tried to build the package using ./configure and make. This 
didn't stop the same way, but it didn't compile the same files. The same 
problem existed in the Makefiles, by removing it it seemed to work.

So, after all compilation (seemingly successfully) was finished, i did 
a(n equally successfull) make install, and I was almost happy.

Now when I try to start mwm, it stops with the message "./mwm: can't load 
library libXm.so'". The installation completed without problems, and 
ldconfig lists amongst others "30 - ELF libXm.so.0.82 =..." (yes, the 
full path to the lib).

What now?

I am running the generic 1.3.1 kernel. If this is a bug and I should 
report it using some other tool, please be a bit patient with me, I first 
lay my hands on pmax and NetBSD about a week ago, and assume that 
everything that goes wrong is my mistyping. When I get a bit more 
confident I will learn how to do this the right way.

BTW!! Gunnar Helliesen used pkgsrc on the same files, downloaded to 
NetBSD/i386 and ran make. This compiled with a smile, and everything 
seemed to work (maybe that machine runs on an older kernel); even the 
-R:NONE option ran with no complaint.

Either give me some hints, or just explain why this will not work.

Harald.
